Drawdown

A drawdown refers to the decline in the value of an investment portfolio from a relative peak value (highest point) to a relative trough (lowest point). It is often used as a risk factor by investors in portfolio management. A drawdown is usually described in percentages. For example, if the value of an investment portfolio declines from $10,000 to $6500, then the portfolio has experienced a drawdown of 35%.
